地狱义为心路绝处，不幸处，是犯了五逆罪或上品十恶罪的人所去的，吃苦受折磨的地方。在三恶道，即地狱道、畜生道、和饿鬼道中，地狱是火途，谓此道是恶人受炽火烧烤的旅途（如插图12.1.1-22）。

Hell means the place of despair and misfortune. It is where people who commit “Five Crimes of Anti” or the upper grade of “Ten-Ferocity Crimes” go, where they suffer and are tortured. Among the three evil paths, namely the hell path, livestock path, and hungry ghost path, hell is fire path, which means that this path is a journey where evil people are roasted by fiery fire (as shown in Figure 12.1.1-22).

1. 五逆罪 Five Crimes of Anti

逆义为对心理机制的反操作（如图23）。插图23是公元七世纪墨西哥的帕卡尔（Pakal）王的棺材盖板，显示特拉洛克（又名金童，狮子）在得知神父过世的信息后，体内发生了爆炸，堕入了地狱（即患了精神病），如狮子头在火匣中所表示。整幅图像似人在操纵一部机器，表明特拉洛克在地狱中觉悟到了五逆和十恶罪是对心理机制的逆操作，从而他觉悟到了人神契约（参见15.2节）。

The term Anti refers to the opposite operation of mind mechanics (as shown in Figure 23). Figure 23 is the coffin cover of King Pakal of Mexico in the seventh century CE., showing that after learning about the death of his godfather, Tlaloc (also known as Gold Boy) exploded inside his body and fell into hell (i.e., he became mentally ill), as represented by the Jaguar's head in the firebox. The whole image looks like a person operating a machine, indicating that Tlaloc realized in hell that the five anti crimes and ten ferocious deeds are the reverse operation of mind mechanism, thus he realized Covenant Ark (see Section 15.2).

五逆是指弑父，杀母，出神身血，杀阿罗汉，破和合僧。一般人都是由父母抚养长大的，杀害自己的父母，会破坏内心的环境，患精神病，也就是堕入地狱。

Five Antis are patricide, matricide, bleeding god’s body, killing an Ararat, and to ruin godly trinity making. People are generally raised by their parents, when they kill their parents, they destroy their inner environment and suffer from mental illness, which means they fall into hell.

神的外貌是人思维机制中的默认模型，亦作大种（参见10.2《四大种》）。当大种有变化时，依其所造的一切都会随着改变，所以人看见流血的神会引起神经错乱，所以说出神身血会堕入地狱（即患精神病，案例参见9.8 《神的外貌》）。另外，盗、毁、和诽谤神佛的常驻物也属于出神身血罪。神佛的常驻物如神龛，佛像，庙宇、以及庙宇中的器具等。

The appearance of God is the default model in mind mechanism, also known as the big seed (see 10.2 "Four Big Seeds"). When the big seed changes, everything created by it will change accordingly. Therefore, seeing God bleeding will cause mental disorder, so saying that bleeding God's body will cause people to fall into hell (i.e. suffer from mental illness, for examples, see 9.8 "Godly Appearances"). In addition, stealing, destroying, and slandering the permanent dwelling objects of Gods and Buddhas also belong to the sin of bleeding God. The permanent objects of Gods and Buddhas include shrines, Buddha statues, temples, and vessels in temples, etc.

杀阿罗汉就是杀佛。罗汉山是对成就罗汉果（参见14.2.6《四沙门果》）圣人的称呼，亦作金刚山，佛。

破和合僧就是破坏上帝三人组（参见9.9节）的合成制作。僧义为上帝的社区，即由神父金童（即亚当）和玉女（即夏娃）所组成的最小的社区。

Killing an Ararat is killing a Buddha. Mountain Ararat is a fame for a sage who has achieved the Ararat Fruit (see 14.2.6 "Four Shamanic Fruits”), also known as Philosopher-Stone Mountain, Buddha.

"Destroying monk making" refers to the act of deliberately sabotaging the ritual or juristic process by which a godfather attempts to unite a "golden boy" (Adam) and a "jade girl" (Eve) in marriage, thus preventing them from achieving their intended godly trinity (see section 9.9). Monk means smallest godly community, consisting of godfather, a gold boy (Adam), and a jade girl (Eve).

例如14.4节《无字天书》中，当墨西哥（亦作金童，特拉洛克）从地狱里反回到纳瓦特国后，翠玉女（即玉女）拒绝把王位转交给墨西哥。这时苦尤姬（如图26）带兵围住了圣城，要挟蔻特鹠鸺（Coatlicue），要从废黜的金童中选举出一位特拉洛克。墨西哥说： “如果民主选举能造出特拉洛克（即佛），青松石王（即神父）就没必要牺牲自己来造特拉洛克了。” 说着，他就砍下了苦尤姬的头，并把她的尸体肢解成了许多块儿（如图25所示）。就这样，苦尤姬成为了一位亚特兰蒂斯（如图26），沉没到了大西洋底。

For example, in section 14.4 of “Wordless Sky Book", when Mexico (also known as Gold Boy, Tlaloc) returned to Nahuatl Kingdom from hell, Chalchiuhtlicue (i.e., Jade Girl) refused to hand over the throne to him. At this time, Coyolxauhqui (as shown in Figure 26) led a siege against the sacred city of Coatepec, threatening Coatlicue to choose a Tlaloc from among the deposed "Golden Boys." Mexico said: "If democratic elections can create Tlaloc (i.e., Buddha), there is no need for Xiuhtecuhtli (i.e., the Godfather) to sacrifice himself to create Tlaloc." As he said this, he chopped off the head of Coyolxauhqui and dismembered her body into many pieces (as shown in Figure 25). In this way, Coyolxauhqui immediately became one of Atl-anti-s and sank to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.

2. 上品十恶 Top Grade of Ten Ferocities

本文从对境增上，对烦恼心增上，和对所作事增上，这三个方面来辨别地狱趣。

（一）对心理环境增上，如杀父、弑母、出神身血、杀阿罗汉、破和合僧；再如毁盗宗教常住物，欺诳君父师长等。

（二）对烦恼心增上，如极重嗔缠，猛利嗔愤等。

（三）对事增上，如数数杀生，数数偷盗，数数邪见，日积月累不改悔等。

以要言之，纯从分别见惑所发恶业，名为上品十恶，是地狱因。

This article identifies the hellish interest in terms of the three aspects of the escalation to environments of heart, the escalation to vexatious heart, and the escalation to affairs.

(1) Escalation to the psychological environments, such as killing father, killing mother, bleeding God, killing Ararat, breaking the production of godly trinity; and destroying or stealing religious permanent relics, deceiving leader of the state, father, and teachers, etc.

(2) Escalation to vexatious heart, such as extremely heavy irritable entanglement, extremely ferocious hate, and indignation, etc.

(3) Escalation to affairs, such as repeatedly killing sentients, repeatedly stealing and robbing, repeatedly being heretical, accumulating days and months without repentance, etc.

To summarize, the ferocious karmas that arise purely from the discriminative view muddles are called the Top Grade of Ten Ferocities, and it is the cause of hell.

3. 八寒八热地狱 Eight Cold and Eight Hot Hells

地狱有八寒，八热大地狱，一百零八游增地狱等说法。八寒八热等大狱，各有眷属，其类无数。此狱众生，随其作业轻重，经劫不定。罪重者，一日之中，数十次生死劫难。寿命不定，极长者可达一劫。

地狱趣的寿命怎么这么长？前文说了，大千世界谈的是业，业相互熏染，可存活数十、百年，例如传统（也是业）能流传数千年。

There are eight cold great hells, eight hot great hells, and 108 temporary supplement hells. Eight cold and eight hot great hells, each has its own families and affiliations, categories are countless. The sentient beings in the prisons, depending on the severity of their karma makings, experience uncertain. Those who have committed serious crimes suffer dozens of death-and-alive disasters in one day. Their lifespans are uncertain, the extremely long one can reach a catastrophe.

Why do hell interests have such a long lifespan? As mentioned earlier, what the world is talking about is karma, and karma infects each other, can survive for tens or hundreds of years. For example, traditions (also karmas) can be passed down for thousands of years.
